Chile vs Argentina Predictions

• Holders Argentina are on a six-game winning streak.
• Both teams have scored in four of the last five meetings.
• Julian Alvarez has three goals in his last seven games for club and country.

Argentina can make it two from two

Argentina began their Copa America defence with a 2-0 win over Canada and they can book their place in the next round with a game to spare by seeing off Chile.

Chile were held to a 0-0 draw by Peru but they did create plenty of chances but they were unable to convert, and they may fare a bit better against Argentina.

La Albiceleste are exceptional defensively but a few lapses have crept in recently and they have conceded in two of their last four games, while Canada were able to carve out a few opportunities but couldn’t make the most of them.

Chile have scored in each of their last three meetings with their neighbours and can at least get on the scoresheet here, so back Argentina to win and concede.

A 3-1 win for Argentina is the correct score pick as they have scored at least three goals in three of their last five games, and have won two of their last four by two-goal margins.

Julian Alvarez was on target against the Canucks and he can at least double his tally against Chile. The Man City forward has three goals in his last seven games for club and country, playing for a total of just 232 minutes across those fixtures, and he looks the best anytime scorer pick here.
